April 20, 2026Esteban for the Win!
We hired Esteban to play guitar for our annual fundraising gala. He was fantastic! Very professional, great communication, and so MUCH talent! Our guests loved his Spanish guitar and it was the perfect background music for the networking. He showed up early and brough all his own equipment which saved us money on AV cost! I highly recommend Esteban for your next event.

Hello Esteban,
The evening was magical and so was your delightful entertainment.
We appreciated that you arrived with plenty of time to get acquainted with the space and to discuss any last minute requests with us (there were none.) We all enjoyed your specially curated choice of music and beautiful Spanish/Latin pieces.
Thank you.
Until next time!
